Rivers Cuomo stated that "Beverly Hills" along with the solo, third verse, and last chorus of "[[Falling for You]]," are his proudest musical achievements: "Its incredibly fun: a great beat, guitar riffs, catchy vocal style.

Fan opinions are fairly mixed on "Beverly Hills", but the majority of the die-hard fan opinions are typically mediocre to unfavorable.
